Bristol City sack their manager, Lee Johnson after defeat to Cardiff City

Share This


Bristol City has sacked their manager after Saturday's 1-0 defeat at home to Cardiff City.


It's been gathered that his assistant Head Coach Dean Holden will take over immediately in a caretaker capacity as the Robins look to appoint a successor.


Recall that he signed a new four-year contract at Ashton Gate in May 2019.

City chief executive Mark Ashton said: "We recognise the huge amount of work that Lee has put in over the last four-and-a-half years to move this club forward and we thank him for all his efforts.

"There have been some special moments over those years and Lee has played a significant part in them.


"However, success in football is ultimately judged by results and league position and the board believes that a change of management is needed now for Bristol City."

Bristol have not won in their last nine games.

That poor run of results has seen them drop out of the play-off places and down to 12th position, nine points behind Cardiff in the final play-off spot.
